Web templates

As part of an institutional home page redesign in 2010, a template was created for university web publishers that incorporates the official logo and colors, and links to the UW–Madison home page, as well as other key campus web resources such as the map and events calendar.

This template should be used for school- and college-level sites linked from the UW home page, sites that have an institutional scope beyond a single department, and administrative units that serve the entire campus.

The template is designed to be consistent with the UW home page, yet adaptable to allow a unit to have a distinct identity via content, photographs, and other elements that fall below the template’s top banner. For units that would like additional guidance for customizing the templates, these sample websites show some options. Units may also contact University Communications for help with customization.

UW–Madison units that do not use the templates must follow minimum web standards.
